Hello :hi2:
I have had a bit of a problem for some reason my computer has crashed just came to turn it on and nothing i don't have the special disc to go back to factory setting that alien re-spawn makes i thought i did until i went to use it and nothing was on itsystem restore did work until i tried to log in and it just showed a blank screen and all services were stopped so i decided to re installed window's this being my first time iv ever had to this all went well and i noticed when i got to the partitions i had 3 a OEM part RECOVERY and my main C:/
When windows finished installing i started to copy my filed from windows.old across until i had the bright idea there must be a program that can do this quicker what a mistake it make double triples of everything so i coped my main stuff e.g. music, pictures and decided to start again wipe everything and later just put those files back.
This time when i got to the partitions when installing windows i now had 4
1 OEM
2x RECOVERY and my c:/ so i thought to my self that windows must make a recovery partition so i deleted both of them the newest recovery partition merged into the c:/ well but the old RECOVERY partition didn'tand just become unallocated space so a bit confused and knowing i couldn't do anything about it i carried on installed all my drivers and programs updated everything done a system restore point and now decided to run alien re-spawn the right way and do a full system backup only to now find that it says i don't have a recovery partition so it won't let me.
As you can see from my picture iv added i have restored the unallocated space and its automaticly made it into a G:/
After my life story
My question is how do i turn this drive back into a RECOVERY partition? and so it is hidden?
